  • Collaborate with Marketing to refine messaging, positioning, and leverage case studies tailored for mid-sized companies.
  • Represent Wealthbit at industry events, workshops, networking opportunities, and client meetings around Johannesburg.
  • Regularly report on sales KPIs (conversion rates, average deal size, sales cycle length) and recommend actionable improvements.

You have 5+ years experience in B2B sales, ideally in sectors like EAP, HR tech, SaaS, or financial services, with demonstrable success consistently hitting sales milestones.

Data-driven Decision Making:

You're skilled in leveraging CRM tools (Pipedrive) and data analytics to drive informed decisions and continuously enhance sales performance.

You have a hunger for continuous improvement, proactively seeking opportunities to evolve processes and grow personally and professionally within the organisation.

Bonus points if you have:
